The fact that we've got about five, maybe even more NHL prospects on the farm right now:

Wotherspoon
Baertschi
Poirier
Shore
Granlund
Kulak
Arnold
(Culkin..please get healthy)
Reinhart
Ferland
Sieloff

For their development these guys should make the AHL Playoffs and make a serious run at a championship. Ortio can get them there and get them very deep (deeper than he can get this Calgary Flames team). You're going to throw that away for... a late round draft pick?

Hiller can get the NHL Flames to the NHL playoffs, and whatever happens there happens. Even Ramo isn't half as bad as his last few showings. Ortio can come up next season when his replacement is ready to assume the mantle.
